What this scandal needs is a great coined name... here it is... "The Fannie Mae Four"
Barney Frank, Christopher Dodd, Jim Johnson, Franklin Raines
As a bonus... I also coined the term "The Vanity Post" for the source line for vanity posts. Enjoy. :)
I suggest the “FannieMae5Gate” scandal.
That would include that crook Gorelick. Bastard was partially responsible for 9/11. A lot of blood on this rich Democratic hack’s hands.
I was being a bit tongue in cheek by doing what the drive-by media always seems to do :-) Since they aren’t too creative... or professional for that matter... it’s just easiest to add “gate” onto whatever word, and write it off as “good” journalism...stampgate, troopergate, Alaska-Russia geography-gate, etc.

Thats all I remember.
How about the Demron Four?
At the intersection of Congress and Fannie Mae, you will find...
